3rd Test: Indian bowlers dominate, England 92/4 at Lunch

Mohali, Nov 26: A disciplined bowling effort coupled with atrocious shot selection by the visiting batsmen enabled India to take early control as England were tottering at 92 for four at lunch on day one of the 3rd Test.

Despite some fielding errors, the hosts managed to get rid of skipper Alastair Cook (27), young Haseeb Hameed (9), batting mainstay Joe Root (15) and Moeen Ali (16) in the morning session after the visitors elected to bat.

While the pitch is not the easiest one to bat, barring Hameed, who got out to a good delivery, skipper Cook and the talented Root should be cursing themselves for poor shots that they played.
